Santa’s Fun Run
Greek Day On Monday (21st November) , Year 5 had a fantastic day taking part in their Greek workshop, they all thoroughly enjoyed it. Well done for making such an effort on the costumes, they all looked great! The children started the day learning about some Greek gods and goddesses. This was a good chance for the children to show off how much they had learnt and remembered. They then played lots of games involving Greek food and heroes from Greek mythology and heard a few Greek Myths. There were lots of amazing artefacts for the children to experience and they tried on helmets and tried to pick up the shield. We ended the session with a battle against two of the city states. After lunch, the children experienced their very own Higham Olympics; Alpha Vs Omega. They had a go at discus and javelin throwing. They were all so good that we decided to practice the Greek practice of democracy and voted that it was a draw. A great day was had by all.
For Art in Term 1, Year 5 studied sculptures. We started our topic by looking at famous sculptures around the world and their sculptors. We then researched our Olympic poses and made models out of pipe cleaners. Finally we made our sculptures out of mod roc and painted them bronze.
As part of our Ancient Greek topic, we made Greek vases, designed Greek clothes, described Percy Jackson and made our own fact files about Greece.
